[QUOTE="Willie Oleson, post: 339666, member: 8"] When I watched the first disc of season 2 I forgot to click on the "next" arrow that would display the third and fourth story (episodes 5 to 8). Needless to say this will be rectified a.s.a.p. Episodes 9 and 10 have Ma Parker as the guest villainess, and Catwoman in a villainous cameo. Cool! [ATTACH type="full"]40740[/ATTACH] Shelley Winters was a good choice for "Ma Parker" and it's one of those rare Batman stories that almost make sense. There's some proper trickery going on to get her where she wants to be, and the plot to take over prison and turn it into a headquarter for criminal masterminds is interestingly different from the many Great Robbery stories. Batman notices that Robin is a little bit too much interested in daughter Legs Parker and he advises his protégé to keep his head up and focus on what's important. Just like Robin always looks a bit sidelined whenever Batman is being be-purred by Catwoman or one of her equally sexy disguises. This is not an implication of course, I merely describe the dynamics "as is". You can draw your own conclusion.
